Ghost City

My name is Black Calamity.

"Actually."

"I am the Ghost King, residing in the Ghost City."

The smoky head floated in the air, silently saying, "The Ghost City is built deep within the Metaverse Experimental Zone, an area also known as the Dark Ghost Domain, spanning 2.4 million li and inhabited by 2.4 million people."

Qin Yiguan looked at it and said, "Are you mentally ill?"

But after Qin Yiguan said those words...

It felt both laughable and absurd.

Black Calamity was originally a split personality of his own, and it was a mental problem in itself.

So, the current situation is...

--Mental health issues. After carefully considering this matter, Qin Yiguan realized that he also seemed to have mental health issues. If this sentence were written down, you would find that it contains many 'mental health issues'. You can't think about it too much, or you will also have mental health issues.

"I'm very serious."

The smoky-faced figure turned back to look at Qin Yiguan. This face, identical to Qin Yiguan's, was dark and gloomy, with dark circles under its eyes.

"I and my people have lived in peace for 13 years."

"But just two months ago, an even more powerful force set its sights on the Ghost City."

"Every night, they devour the Ghost City and slaughter my people."

"I will perish with this Ghost City."

Black Calamity stared wide-eyed, its Pupil a greyish-white. "Now, I am about to be devoured by them, to die without a burial place, to vanish into nothingness."

Qin Yiguan remained silent for a long time.

He thought the talk of a ' Ghost City ' and a 'ghost king' was utter nonsense.

But he began to take Black Calamity's words seriously.

Because of his previous experience with Starvation Corpse, he now believes that anything is possible within the Metaverse.

Although, this was originally a science fiction world.

But last time, the bizarre creatures known as Starvation Corpse appeared.

This time, it's even more outrageous... a ghost?

Moreover, Qin Yiguan never expected that Black Calamity, who usually appeared and disappeared without a trace, actually had his own city, and was even a king?

"Last time, you told me that I have other personalities that are opposed to you."

Qin Yiguan slowly turned around, "The 'them' you just mentioned, are they my personalities?"

"While the other personalities are terrifying, I still have the ability to fight them; the outcome is uncertain."

Black Calamity looked into the distance, his Pupil trembling. "If the opponent were any other personality, I wouldn't be so desperate."

Qin Yiguan frowned slightly. "So, who is your enemy this time?"

Black Calamity's lips trembled as he said, "Another Ghost King."

"..."

"Another Ghost King."

Qin Yiguan was slightly speechless; the situation was developing in an increasingly absurd direction.

Immediately.

Qin Yiguan turned around, "Why do you think I can help you?"

Black Calamity's eyes flickered slightly, and he uttered two words, "Intuition."

"Intuition..."

Qin Yiguan repeated, "Speaking of intuition, although my adoptive parents weren't killed by you, Black Calamity, in the past few years, you've set up countless traps to try and kill me, and I've relied on my intuition to escape deadly crises time and time again."

What are you even doing hiding?

Black Calamity said, "That was all thanks to the Guardian ' covert assistance."

Qin Yiguan frowned as he looked at him.

But Black Calamity's face immediately contorted into a grimace. "Qin Yiguan, help me! Help me! I'm terrified! If I had hands and feet, I'd kneel before you! I beg you! If you can help me through this crisis, I'll do anything you ask! I'll do anything for you!"

Qin Yiguan looked at Black Calamity.

Its current expression is one of terror, longing, and an almost desperate desire to grovel.

The contrast between the past aloofness, mystery, and menacing aura of Black Calamity and the present is stark.

Qin Yiguan suddenly found things were getting interesting.

I pondered for a moment.

He said, "My flying machine can reach your Ghost City, right?"

Black Calamity nodded quickly, "Okay!"

Qin Yiguan looked ahead, "Coordinates."

Black Calamity's eyes lit up. "Deep in the Experimental Zone, north, north, keep going, I'll show you the way!"

Qin Yiguan was also somewhat looking forward to it.

With a slight smile, she shouted, "Meina, head north, full speed ahead!"

Boom!

Before the Shadow could even exert its full power, it was hit by a beam weapon. Although its energy shield activated in time, 20% of it was instantly destroyed.

But in front of the Shadow, a somewhat dilapidated but massive aircraft, equipped with various offensive weapons, was floating.

At that moment, a huge void screen unfolded in front of the aircraft, displaying only two words: Robbery.

"The legendary Experimental Zone bandits?"

Qin Yiguan frowned slightly.

"Grass."

Black Calamity cursed under its breath, its expression instantly turning sinister. Then it transformed into black mist, drifting out of the Shadow and directly entering the opponent's aircraft.

Qin Yiguan heard faint screams.

But then they saw the observation glass of the opposite aircraft shatter, and various severed limbs flew out and fell to the ground like rain.

Immediately, the aircraft veered off course and crashed to the ground, exploding with a deafening roar.

The black mist returned to the Shadow and reformed into the Black Calamity.

Qin Yiguan noticed that the Black Calamity, which had a small part of its shoulder, had now disappeared, leaving only its head.

It must have just used [Gestalt Collapse], transformed into a monster, and slaughtered the bandits.

However, each time it uses this technique, a portion of its body dissipates.

Black Calamity's expression remained largely unchanged, contorted with rage and cruelty.

The moment it glanced at Qin Yiguan, it forced a smile, "Hehe, all done, let's hurry up and go."

The Shadow began its true acceleration, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the horizon.

On the way, Qin Yiguan suddenly turned his head, frowned, and said, "Black Calamity, this time your scheme isn't a trap to lure me in, is it? Your real purpose is to kill me?"

Black Calamity declared righteously, "Absolutely impossible!"

"Hehe, that's good."

Qin Yiguan looked at Black Calamity, whose face was innocent and naive, but upon closer inspection, its Pupil were contracting at an extremely small degree, like a fox that doubted everything.

The Shadow continued its flight without interruption.

In the blink of an eye, it has traveled millions of kilometers.

Although the land was still barren, the current location was a faraway place that Qin Yiguan had never been to before.

For a very long time.

Qin Yiguan glanced at the mileage: 12 million kilometers.

This distance is enough to circle the Physical Earth 300 times or fly to the Moon 35 times.

In the old days, this was an appalling distance.

But in this day and age...

We haven't even covered one ten-millionth of the Gemini Metaverse.

"Arrive!"

All that could be heard was Black Calamity's excited shout, "The Ghost City is just ahead!"

at the same time.

Qin Yiguan also saw in the distance a gray city that seemed to stand tall on the horizon.

Subconsciously.

Qin Yiguan glanced at the coordinates of his current location.

4366777/57787X5533.

"X?"

Qin Yiguan looked somewhat puzzled.

I have never seen a letter, especially the letter 'X', in any coordinate system. People often use it to represent 'unknown', ' Infinity ', or 'uncertain answer'.
